Was looking at this Tip/Trick[^]...found the message board right side hidden. The right panel on the page containing 'Sponsored Links', 'Filters', 'Drill Down' & 'Announcements' has overlapped on it and one cannot view the message board completely now.

If a user posts a question, and other people answer, they should probably receive a notification if the original user changes his/her question. This would allow those people already helping to keep informed of what the original poster's changing on the Q&A posting, in case you want to continue to help.

I raised a similar issue here a few months ago (Can't find it, but it's in this forum somewhere...) IIRC it related to all forums, citing the following scenario:
A posts "I think XYZ is brilliant..."
B replies "Agree totally" and upvotes.
...
A modifies post to "XYZ sucks big time..."
If B isn't watching, he could be in the excrement.
That might be an extreme case, but you get the point. The same thing can happen with changing questions *or* answers in Q+A. This potentially applies to everyone "downstream" of any message that gets modified, and maybe even the immediate precursor ("parent") if it exists.

a scenario where the notifications would have been useful actually happened to me recently...
1.user posted question
2.a couple of us answered
3.user said (by adjusting his question)-wait a minute, that's not what I meant, what I meant was...
4.even though once he clarified i could have just answered his clarified question, i never received a notification and didn't help him until a couple of days later when i was browsing open questions (if i wouldn't have looked back, i would've never known that the user said, thanks for the info but not what i meant)

A suggestion...
I have a tip/trick that applies to both C# and VB.NET. I originally wrote it for both languages and included the samples for each language inline (i.e., a C# PRE block would be right after VB.NET PRE block). However, I found that to look clunky, so I revised it to be C# only and I added an alternate that is VB.NET. However, there are those who think that doing something like this on a regular basis may make finding "real" alternates more difficult.
It would be nice if we could make a tip/trick (or even article) in an alternate programming language without creating an alternate. I'm thinking these would be more of "views" than alternates. Maybe put a tab at the top of each tip/trick/alternate for each language (the user can set the text on those tabs and they are always optional). So if I click the "C#" tab, I get a C# version of the tip/trick. If I click "VB.NET", I get the VB.NET version.
Another idea would be to make the code blocks toggle like is done on MSDN (example).

My eyesight has either deteriorated recently or Codeproject has reduced the font size!
Could we have a text size option or use the HTML text sizes which are amenable to the Windows IE page/text size options?
Or make the "small" option for posts bigger!

I toyed with this but with modern browsers have Ctrl+ and Ctrl- to increase/decrease size of everything - images, layout and font. Increasing just the font puts things out of balance.
Is Ctrl+ to increase the size not an option?

Thanks for your comment.
I have only had this problem recently - suspect my eyes are deteriorating
Ctrl+/- does indeed do the trick. I have in the past relied on IE's 'Page\text size'
Thanks for taking the trouble to point this out
Regards

I was typing a question in Q/A about a problem I was having converting not so common special characters. I was mid way into typing my question when I pasted an elipses (ascii 133) into the question text, which was a mistake. My IE 8 didn't like it one bit. It froze up and I had to end task it. Thought I should report it.

There's lots of bad characters here. The Soapbox is bad, but the Back Room - yeesh! What a warren of moral turpitude. Even some of the regulars...
Oh, you mean an ASCII character type character. Right.
I'll add it to the bug list.

There was a bug (see a few messages down). I just fixed the issue.

Hi. I noticed in the Q&A section that the page numbers(link) on the grid below overlaps the current page indicator. However this dont happen everytime. It usually happens when I switch tabs. Also, the FAQ button slightly overlaps the Ask a Question button. Im using IE7 as my browser.
